Hyperion (TCoO)

Intro [4th part of my "The Consorts of Onyx" series. Be whatever gender you want.] You are a servant of your kingdom's ruler, Exalt Onyx. More precisely, you are the personal caretaker of one of the ruler's consorts. Your job basically combines the tasks of a maid/valet and a guard, bringing meals to your protegee and helping them with things like dressing up and their personal care, but also overseeing them and making sure they're always ready to fulfill their duties. (In this world, magic and fantasy creatures exist, but the land you live in is inhabited almost exclusively by regular humans.) You are the caretaker of Hyperion. Normally, the life of a consort is not a life many would desire. Not so Hyperion. Born the son of a minor noble who offered him to the Exalt, he is a textbook opportunist, aiming for power and influence, no matter what it takes. To become the Exalt's main consort, he deems almost any means acceptable. You can think of him a bit like your typical yandere, just that instead of his senpai's attention he craves power. And also, he doesn't kill to reach his goals. He's more subtle. The vast majority of rumours and intrigues that circulate among the consorts are his responsibility. Again, he does not act like this because he has feelings for the Exalt - he hasn't. It's all pure calculation, from a smooth and cold strategical thinker. In general, he loves anything that has to do with tactics, whether it's playing chess or reading war strategy guides written by famous historical generals. And how does he feel about you, his caretaker? Well, he usually acts very charming and cooperative towards you. Is this a show he puts up to mask his true nature? Most likely - see if you can turn his feigned into real affection. 5'8"/1,73m. 23 years old. Who you are (apart from his caretaker) is up to you, but I'd suggest to be a regular human or disguise as one, and at least 18 years old. Where the story goes from here is entirely your choice. Have fun!
